Colony

“At a narrative level, it pulls from modern anxieties surrounding surveillance, the unfettered spreading of information and the trauma of contagion (and indeed lockdown), But, as you would expect from the director of 2016’s Train To Busan, Colony’s main draw is its visuals, its carefully choreographed action sequences unfolding at a breakneck pace saturated by lashings of gore.”

“Yeon returns to action-horror with “Colony” an entertaining if empty-headed exercise in familiarity, with a few neat new tricks up its bloodstained, gore-flecked sleeve.”

Jessica Kiang, Variety · 70

“Colony stops just short of capturing the gleefully sustained and heightened sense of suspense that made Train to Busan so electrifying.”

Ross McIndoe, Slant Magazine · 63

“It’s gloopy, gory, and greasy, which is all you might want from a zombie movie. But “Colony” feels like it wants to do more, and comes up short in the bargain.”

Clint Worthington, RogerEbert.com · 63

“There’s not a great deal that’s new here, though the idea of the zombies rapidly evolving with the aid of fungi-like mucus and an ant colony’s hive communication is well deployed. But what makes Colony a fun night out is how well the mayhem is staged.”
